Is the same thing.

Just your state decided to standardize what was taught, instead of letting private companies also offer it. For what it's worth, in California we have both.

It's not the same thing. You can still get your learner's permit even if you don't complete high school or the driver's ed graduation requirement.

That sounds like a special provision rather than the norm - there isn't a high percentage of youth not graduating from high school in the US.
